Sample-Studios 15th Anniversary Annual Members Summer Exhibition opens
After a busy opening weekend for our Annual Members Summer Exhibition in Sample-Studios Gallery: The Lord Mayor’s Pavilion, we’re reflecting on our wonderful Opening Reception last Thursday.

Our members make up the heart of Ireland’s largest artist studios, and on occasions like this it’s plain to see what this vibrant creative community means to our city. Their work, dedication, perseverance, and the support they show their peers is outstanding and inspiring! It was a joy to see so many artists, creatives, and members of the public gather together on a sunny evening in Fitzgerald’s Park at our gallery The Lord Mayor’s Pavilion to enjoy a rich and diverse display of 44 local contemporary artists.
